The windy side? Where did you go?
Ocho Rios.
I also vote for Croatia, because I want to go to Croatia. It's Italy, but Slavic! What a combo!
Mal: Cut it out. Job's not done until we're back on Serenity. Zoe: Sorry, sir. Didn't mean to enjoy the moment.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ocho Rios.
I've never noticed Ochi being significantly windier than, say, Kingston. I don't vacation much on the south or NE side, though.
I don't remember it characteristically windy at all. But maybe I have a high tolerance.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I spent a morning at and near Montego Bay. Don't remember any particular wind.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
I went to court today about my uninvited houseguest. When he showed up, he had those purple and yellow bruises all over his face that white guys get when they are slow in a fight.
I felt like such a shitheel. The dude needs help. He needs a place to crib, and maybe some tips on how to curb his ethanol hang-up. The judge just wanted to know was how big a book to throw at him.
"I hereby sentence Mr. X to 18 months of continual ass-wuppings by other inmates." ...was is in no way satisfying.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Gah, that's rough Gus. I'm sorry this landed on you.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Argh, Gus. How frustrating. And I'm sorry that Wisconsin is no better than California at dealing with lawbreakers who have other problems besides breaking the law. I knew CA had been all screwed up since Reagan dismantled our mental/psych care safety net, but I had a vague idea that the other states had learned from our bad example.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm sorry, Gus. You have been cast into a very difficult role in this little drama.
Pierre c. Shadeaux has predicted a long spring. I hope he's right.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Reagan dismantled our mental/psych care safety net
Yeah, that was a nationwide phenomenon.
Ugh, Gus.
In much pettier news, I now realize that I will pay for my cockiness about making it to 30 without ever being a bridesmaid. I am currently scheduled to be one in June and in September. Bleh. Although, I can't think of who would be next, so that should mean it'll be a while....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
When I was in Madison (mid to late '80s) there was some controversy in Wisconsin - some people felt that since Wisconsin had a "better" welfare program than other states, disadvantaged folk from other states would come to Wisconsin to "take advantage" of it. So I guess I'm wondering outloud if Wisconsin's progressive history has pretty much bitten the dust in the last 15 years or so?

Gus, I'm sorry. My first instinct upon seeing your name over a post was to ass-caps a "welcome home!" to you, but now I'm just sorry it's been a rough coming-home.
[Edited to write JZ-with-exclamation-point, because I haven't posted with her in forever. So: JZ! Hope you're doing well.
If there's one thing in sitting here to write a paper when it's nearly tomorrow, it's posting with people I haven't posted with in forever.]
